Pouncey was a gator. He probably has a record. ��Seriously though, the extra kicks and punches when Garrett was subdued probably didn't help his cause.

He can appeal. Not sure how that will shake out since this whole thing was madness.

Pouncey got 3 games. I think 2 games would have been reasonable, but I would have done the same thing as him.

Ogundeji got 1 game, I think he should have been suspended for at least 2 games. It's not like ogundeji went after Pouncey or Descastro in defense of MG; he took a blatant blind side cheap shot at a QB with no helmet on.

The more I think about it and review the video I think MR probably should have gotten a 1 game suspension. but it seems all he is going to get is a fine.

Pouncey getting three games seems like a bad omen for Garrett. Seems like the NFL is going to come down hard on this.

Well he's already been suspended for a MINIMUM of the rest of this regular and postseason without pay. But yeah, he's likely headed towards something unprecedented.

They should man, you can’t validate gangland stomping on players because he hit your QB anymore than you could validate what MG did because MR twisted his helmet and kicked his balls. MG will miss anywhere from 2-4 games next year too. Only thing for me is Rudolph walking away like a total victim here,... QB league is right.

And we totally agree, glad you are thinking straight finally,... lol

The reason Rudolph got upset and reacted was Garrett's need to throw Rudolph to the ground after he had thrown the pass. It was clearly uncalled for, especially since the outcome of the game was already settled.

Garrett is tackling him as Rudolph releases the pass. There's no way for him to know if he still has the ball or not. Go watch the replay.

And if you want to complain about Garrett going for the sack with the game essentially over, Pittsburgh shouldn't be passing at that point with 8 seconds left coming off two consecutive sacks.

My ultimate take(s):

MG is getting his justs no doubt but I’ll root for a great redemption story next year. He seems to have a Suh mode where he’s this totally level headed, smart kid until he just isn’t.

Rudolph is a fucking bitch and so are most Steelers fans but that’s nothing new.

Good to see so many ‘haters’ loving all over Baker for his ‘leadership’.

Whole thing is really surreal to me

I’ll never be able to enjoy football, like, REALLY enjoy it,... will I???

MG went past a line when he used the helmet so he gets what he deserves. Rudolph's punishment or fine should be having to pay Pouncey's fine for him. Rudolph has to shoulder some of the blame for this as well and being seen as a puss on national tv isn't enough for me.

Rudolph is a huge puss. I'm actually really glad he didn't get suspended though. I don't want Pittsburgh turning to someone else like Kaep and accidentally catching lighting in a bottle. December 1st is going to be a bloodbath (metaphorically hopefully)

It's nice to see Rudolph pick up the mantle and continuing the tradition of Pittsburgh QBs being absolutely insufferable douches.

Sure beats the tradition Cleveland has...one where the winningest qb in their stadiums history is....an opposing qb.

Pouncey getting three games is absurd.

Pouncey was punching and stomping Garret's head while he was already down. 3 games seems pretty fair.

Still think Rudolph should have gotten a game suspension or a half game suspension for starting the whole thing. Acting blameless after the whole thing was a real bitch move, he should have at least taken some responsibility. Garret should get suspended the rest of 2019 and a few games of 2020. That's enough for a first time offender. People point to Burfict missing the entire 2019 season for his lesser hit, but you have to remember he's a multiple time offender that has shown no remorse for his hits. That's not the case with Garret.

The thing is MG is not a first time offender.

Only time I've ever seen a player use a helmet as a weapon like this before was the '07 Bama-Arky game. An Arky DL ripped a Bama OL player's helmet off and hit him in the forehead with it. Getting mad in a game is one thing, but you can't lose your cool to this extent. Garrett's career is in serious jeopardy.


He is young and good at football. He will get a shot with a team like the Browns or Bengals... or Patriots.

I think Mason started it. MG should be suspended.

Personally, I thought the funniest thing was Ogunjobi taking Mason down. The look on Mason's face sitting on his ass was hilarious.

I actually think Ogunjobi's push was absolutely pathetic. You a DT and the dude just got smashed in the head with his own helmet and you push him from behind... Cool move really tough.

That's small potatoes. That kind of shove after a play happens all the time. It's a penalty, but not worthy of additional punishment past the penalty.

I didn't really mind that so much. Only one person merited any punishment more than a fine and that is Garrett. He shouldnt play another down. Makes Burfict look like an alter boy.

I believe he was heavily fined for that hit to Walker.

Again this is the worst incident we have seen since the Ron Artist incident in the stands about 15 years ago at the palace in Auburn Hills Michigan.

So you agree Ogundeji pulled a bitch move and should have been suspended for more than 1 game?

He should be held accountable in light of the others, yes

Burficts hit this year that got him suspended was 10x worse than what Garrett just did. It was premeditated and unprovoked.

Should this incident have happened outside of a football stadium, been viewed by police who arrested everyone for felony assault and battery, that there were witnesses and that it was caught on videos, they all would be facing time and have little defense.

The criminal investigation into Kareem Hunt's assault, which occurred in Cleveland, was dropped because the woman refused to pursue criminal charges. Hunt was released by the team before the investigation concluded. Hunt was suspended for eight games.

Yep, and most people would have been fine with the guy who started it (Rudolph, IMO) getting his ass whipped.

Yeah I'd rather have a shitty QB than a rapist.

Not a surprising take coming from a yinzer though.

I'm glad Mason Rudolph wasn't suspended because we have to play the Steelers again and it would be much tougher if he didn't play.
